Here's what I did: Resize the terrain so all items are within or meeting the terrain perimeter. Nothing extending beyond. Check for elevation region overlaps. That took the build time down to 2 seconds.
Another good tip for you: adjust your fill patterns used in plan view to solid fill wherever possible. If you need to see through them, adjust the transparency. Busy fill patterns in plan view slow Chief down as well.
I tried your suggestion increasing terrain size that made 7 seconds quicker, did you get a massive file size increase ?

There something funky about this file as after I got it going faster the file size jumped from 5meg to 120 meg
Other problems not related to build time, the biggest elevation region is overlapping retaining wall and another retaining wall bottom height has been manually dragged open structure tab and reset default bottom height

Use the rainbow tool on the correct material see what its name is then open walls that are wrong go to wall types tab on the top layer or outside layer change to the correct material that you seen with the rainbow tool
Also i notice that you were trying to get a pattern from a texture you should not need to do that with bricks a standard grid pattern is best to use

See if that helps
-
Upload your file and I or others should be able to tell what is wrong

-
Upload your or show your terrain data
-
Upload your plan file to get quick answers

Either have terrain on foundation level or use terrain hole tool

Try pressing the ctrl for windows or cmd on mac when moving the shelves and bath spout , and when selecting mirrors hit the tab key it will select things below it keep hit it until what you want is selected

I'm SO MUCH CLOSER!! Trying figure out how to get some auto dormers on the front but the first-floor walls auto generating on the second floor is what's confusing me. Why do they do that? Is that because my roof is generated from the first floor?

No data you must have the file open in chief when you zipped it.
-
Also what version of chief are you using as if i fix the problem in wrong version you won't be able to open it
-
Your file has no data your must close chief and the file before uploading

Have a look at this file i made terrain elevation data standout to trouble shoot you problem you need to put elevation data on each side of retaining walls.
-
If you want upload file and I can fix that
-
Go to your default exterior wall and untick furred wall. then it will draw new walls with it turned off
-
Have a look at this file i set the pool house floor elevation structure tab to -90" hope this helps floor heights don't follow terrain. you need to control them with there dialog

Have a look at this file i made the porch a room with auto roofs on its still a bit wacky but might be closer to what you want.
-
See if that is getting closer to what you want i think maybe use apple street view to get some better photos or google
-
If you get a chance tell the outcome I would be interested
Getting terrain interpolator is ignoring terrain breaks is there a way to fix? Started out of nowhere.
